FRESNO, Calif. (KERO) — Detectives with the Fresno County Sheriff’s Office seek help identifying two men and a woman suspected in a Jan. 13th assault and robbery in the Sanger area.

The Sheriff’s Office said a man and woman, who was holding a handgun, entered the store and forced an employee behind the counter. The man ordered the clerk to get down and then struck her on the head knocking her to the ground, said the Sheriff’s Office.
